Hi Fernando,

You may want to ask this question on the kea-users mailing list instead (https://lists.isc.org/mailman/listinfo/kea-users) and I'll be happy to give you some suggestions there. I'd just like to make sure that, in the future, should someone have a similar question, that they will be able to find the information since it would be in the kea-users list.

Thank you,

Darren Ankney

This query would seek the MAC address of the cable modem, present in both the Client MAC address field ("ARRISGro_4c:d4:a2" or "98:6b:3d:4c:d4:a2") and option 82 ("Agent Information Option"). If the MAC is found in the table, it would fetch the corresponding value from the boot-file field. If no match is found, the response would default to "default.bin".
